Energy & The Environment

Given the world’s rapidly growing appetite for more energy, meeting this need while at the time cutting emissions and mitigating the effect of global warming are becoming increasingly tough challenges. Building a more sustainable world for people today and – even more importantly – for future generations is becoming an increasingly important imperative.

Promoting a greater use of renewables, tapping the power of the sea, and generating and using electricity in smarter ways, are just some of the areas in which Finnish companies are helping improve the way we
manage all things energy-related.

The cleantech field is expanding rapidly as researchers and the business world focus on leveraging existing expertise and developing new know-how to reduce our environmental footprint.

New capabilities that are emerging as a result of the work being done by Finnish companies on managing waste streams more effectively include using robots to improve recycling and automating the way waste is collected in the first place.
